Today Lime Rock Park officially announces the launch of Road to 60.
Road to 60 is the multi-faceted program designed to offer the opportunity to become an important -- and fully acknowledged -- part of Lime Rock’s future.
Lime Rock Park’s 60th anniversary is next year. The road that brought Lime Rock Park to this hallmark was laid April 28, 1957, when Lime Rock opened its gates for the very first time – and 7,000 fans showed up to watch the SCCA’s New England Region hold the first-ever races on the 1.5-mile, 7-turn road course. In the six decades since, Lime rock’s history can almost be said to be America's sports car racing history, so inextricably entwined are the two.
Road to 60 is a rare opportunity for fans, sponsors, competitors and even media to become directly identified with Lime Rock's heritage, to be part of the future of motor racing in the United States. In other words, to ready Lime Rock Park for its next 60 years.
Specifically, Road to 60 will result in:
►Building a Sam Posey-designed “Legends of Lime Rock Wall of Fame.” Think John Fitch, Paul Newman, Mark Donohue, Roger Penske, Parnelli Jones, Skip Barber, Sam Posey et al.
►Building a Fan Walk using personalized bricks
►Installing a state-of-the art video leaderboard
►Improving cellular coverage, wi-fi service and the PA system
►Expanding restroom and shower facilities
►Improving handicap access facility wide
►Further landscaping and beautification of the venue
►Expansion of medical facilities
►Improved fan & corporate hospitality infrastructure
